This was our 3rd trip to the Maldives. Previously we'd stayed on high end islands (Rangali and Huvavenfushi) but this year the budget was more limited. We wanted an island with great snorkeling, good service and a naturally beautiful environment. Helengeli certainly delivered all this, and more. The house reef is very good indeed - every day we saw turtles... More

Superb island ! - the bungalows have not a lot of cachet but are clean and well hidden in the trees. - the beach is wonderful and long enough so that everybody could feel alone on the island. - the reef is superb for snorkling just in front of the bungalows... - the food was excellent (which is not always...

Stayed here during the second visit to the Maldives for a family diving holiday. Beautiful island but I must say, the resort itself was nice, but average... friendly staff, island was very quiet, a tad deserted. We stayed in the air conditioned bungalows, they were simple, clean and nice, had an amazing outdoor Maldivian bathroom. Diving, was superb. Don't think... More

Helengeli is just wonderful. The end. Actually that's all there is to say. But since I know that you want some more details, I'll try to explain you, why Helengeli is wunderful. First of all, this was my first trip to the Maldives. I've never been there before and I can't compare this island to others. I'm pretty sure, there... More

We had a week at Helengeli, enjoying the delights of the island. The rooms are spacious with large outdoor bathrooms and efficient air conditioning. It was lovely to sit in the shade looking out at the sea each evening. The rooms were cleaned twice a day, probably due to the sand which inevitably we carried in on our feet despite... More

My husband and I spent 1 night at Helengeli. It is a small and clean resort with all needed basic amenities. The staff is cordial and welcoming from the manager who greeted us on arrival and accompanied us upon departure to the waiters in the restaurant and bar, as well as the staff at the reception. Snorkeling is good around... More

Firstly I would like to make it clear the island food etc especially the reef snorkelling etc etc is faultless. However please be aware of what may happen with your accommodation. My wife and I stayed here on a short 2 day transfer whilst staying in a beach front woodland and ocean view jacuzzi beach villa aip on another island.... More

Just returned from a week at Helengeli with the full board package. Firstly, this is a superb island resort, small, very quiet, with great food and service. Being only 800mtrs long and some 80mtrs wide, it must be one of the smallest resorts around, with half the island taken up by the staff area. Even with 50 rooms, the place... More

A natural island with comfortable facilities, friendly staffs and amazing snorkling experience! The first day we arrrived the island we saw the rainbow over small wood! The first sight is a group of senior guests sitting down on the rock ( deck) facing the sea peacefully, I knew it is the right place I am looking for. A bit shock... More
